Door to Door Sales

"Theres just something about a girl named Rose is a tight, red tank top." Jesse said passing out lunch table and winking at me. His two friends laughed but nodded in agreement.

I grinned and stuck out my foot, tripping him so he fell on his face. "There's just something about an asshole covered in pudding." I said dumping pudding on his head.

I heard a few gasps as I smiled triumphantly and Jesse stood wiping the pudding from his face. He glared and I saw the fire in his eyes, I had struck a chord! I had embarrassed him…only it was in front of a lot of people.

I smiled wider. "What's wrong Jesse?" I taunted. His fist balled and it swung for my face, I neatly dodged, grabbing his wrist and pulling it behind his back. I kicked the back of his knees and he fell to the floor.

"Wow Jesse, you're spending a lot of time on the floor today aren't you?" I smiled. He growled and thrashed as I held him down.

I smelled Dimitri's familiar aftershave and relaxed a little.

"Rose." he warned and his arm wrapped around my waist pulling me back from kicking the shit out of Jesse's stupid little face.

He got up, ignoring the hands of the guardian's who offered to help him. I just stared at him tauntingly.

"That girl is a menace! She should be expelled!" he pretended to be appalled. I grinned, and leaned forward as much as Dimitri's arms would let me.

"Bite me." I said.

He came rushing at me but Guardian hands grabbed his shoulders and pulled him back. But not before my foot connected with his nose and sent blood spraying. Dimitri pulled me back as soon as he saw it coming, but not soon enough.

The Guardian's led him to the infirmary and Dimitri gave me a disapproving look. I shrugged.

"What? It was self defense! He attacked me!" I said pointedly.

"Yes Rose, but you asked for it." he said. I rolled my eyes.

"I didn't ask for anything. Unless you're offering." I winked at Dimitri and he groaned as he escorted me to Kirova's.

"What's this assembly about?" Lissa asked me the next day at lunch as Kirova stood in front getting ready to make an announcement. I sighed.

"Fundraising."

"Students please settle down. This year, we are going to try a different kind of fundraising instead of asking parents and relatives for…well donations. We are going to be put into pairs and sell Chocolate door to door." Kirova said like it was the best idea in the world. There were a few quiet groans from the crowd.

"Each pair will be with one Guardian. Now to decide the pairs, you will all get a piece of paper and write down 3 names of people you would like to be paired with." Kirova finished. We all got paper and I wrote down Lissa, Eddie, and Mia.

Then I noticed something.

Adrian was grinning at me from across the table. My eyes turned to slits.

"Why is there a grin on your face Ivashkov?" I asked. He just chuckled and I glanced at Dimitri who looked frustrated.

I was about to speak up when Lissa grabbed my attention.

"You will find your partner posted on the bulletin board outside the café by dinner." Kirova said and then she exited the stage.

As we were leaving the café we handed our papers in and headed to our next classes.

Dinner

"I'm with Christian!" Eddie said happily. He and Christian nodded. I assumed I would be with Lissa so I just went and sat down at our table with the happy Eddie and Christian.

Lissa and Mia came over.

"I'm with Mia…" Lissa said. My eyes narrowed.

"But who am I-"

"That would be me Rose." a cheeky Adrian said grinning. My mouth popped open.

"But you're not a student! But…how-"

"Ah finally, Rose is speechless for me. Have you forgotten how influential my relatives are babe?" he said. I glared.

"Do not call me Babe Ivashkov. And so what you're the Queens nephew! You're still not a student!" I seethed.

"But, a certain student is in trouble for kicking another student and pouring pudding on their head. I can be quite persuasive Rose. You're off the hook because I gave Kirova some…fundraising money." he said grinning wider.

"Okay, so were definitely having a contest to see who can sell the most!" Eddie said. We all nodded, when didn't we have a contest?

"The usual?" I asked. Everyone nodded, and it was set.

Then I saw Dimitri come over to our table.

"Oh thank God!" I yelled and ran over to him.

"He's gone off the deep end and I haven't pushed him! He thinks were partners!" I said. Dimitri kept up a hard mask for a face.

"Yes and what better Guardian to Guard the lucky pair?" he said. It all clicked into place.

"Ohhhhhhh." I said, grinning a little.

"But I have my own Guardians!" Adrian protested. I grinned.

"Gotta follow the rules Adrian!" I said happily and walked off to go get some dinner.

Day of Sales

Isn't it great when you're a badass, sneaky, evil, awesome, smart Novice named Rose who thinks of the best payback for her friends?

Yea, it is.

But then again, here I am with the sometimes noble (usually not), annoying, flirtatious, sneaky Adrian Ivashkov….selling chocolate.

"Okay, you have 3 hours to sell at least 50 chocolate bars." Dimitri said. I grinned at him and winked. His face showed little emotion because we were near other Guardian's but he smirked a little.

Let's just say sleeping next to a sexy Russian named Dimitri is beyond words. Adrian fake gagged.

"Come on, before I puke." he said grabbing my hand. I slipped it out of his softly because if I were to yank my hand out of his I would have dislocated his shoulder…which might not have been a bad thing.

"Yes. Let's sell some chocolates. Without holding hands." I said. He chuckled and stuck a cigarette in his mouth.

Faster than he could blink I took the cigarette and stomped it out.

"That's gross! Who is going to buy a candy bar from a guy that smells like cigarettes and vodka?" I said. He rolled his eyes but said.

"I know I am. Now lets go." I said. We walked up the steps of some person's house and a guy in his twenties opened the door. He grinned and winked at me.

"Well Hi. What can I do for you?" he said suggestively. Adrian was about to step forward.

I stepped closer to the guy, in Adrian's way.

"Well you see, my brother here has this bad disease that makes him…well slow. I have to help him eat breakfast in the morning, he's so dumb! But anyways, do you think you might buy a few chocolate bars to help me raise money for an aid for him? It would give me some time to…go out more." I winked at him and he swallowed.

"Sure, I'll take 5." he said. I licked my lips.

"Perfect." I purred and he stuttered and went to get some money.

Adrian growled and I turned to him.

"What's wrong big brother? Do you need help again?" I teased. I saw Dimitri holding back a smile at my 'Annoy the shit out of Adrian' tactics.

Adrian took a breath.

"No, I'm all good little sister." he said calming down.

The guy came back and handed me the money, and a slip of paper. I winked and gave him the candy, turning on my heal and heading towards Dimitri and the other Guardian's assigned to watch the 'Little Prince'

I winked at Dimitri and I walked by. "Piece of cake." and then so sneakily I slipped my hand in his back pocket and put the guys number in there.

"You might want to hang on to this for me for later." I winked, but kept walking to the next house. Dimitri was the only Guardian with, with us. A few others were trailing in a car and some were a little ahead, making sure it was clear.

Dimitri shivered at my touch and I heard Adrian suck in a breath of anger.

I walked to the next house, Dimitri and Adrian behind me.

"It's okay that you too are slow walkers, but can you stop staring at my ass?" I said behind me. I turned and Adrian looked away.

"I don't know what your talking about." he said. Dimitri just winked.

"Well here's the next house." I said. Then I turned to Adrian. "Don't you make me look bad." I said. He rolled his eyes.

Eddie POV

"Let's do this!" Christian said to me. I smiled and nodded.

"Ready, set…GO!" I said as we started devouring the chocolate. Christian and I had pooled our money so we still paid for the chocolate, but we got to eat it ourselves.

One after the other we popped chocolate into our mouths, and soon the pile grew smaller.

"Man, this was the best idea you've ever had." Christian said. He laughed and nodded.

"Hell yea man."

Lissa POV

Mia and I were doing very well selling the chocolate, we only had 5 more to sell before making the 50 minimum, and we had a whole hour left.

"I bet I can get this guy to buy the last five!" Mia said happily. I laughed.

"Well just don't threaten him! I wonder how Rose is doing? Do you think she's hit anyone yet?" I asked. Mia shrugged.

"Knowing her…yes. Yes she has." I laughed along with Mia as we approached the door of a plain looking house.

The door opened a minute after I had knocked on it and a guy came to the door, in the back we could see two other guys sitting on a couch with game controllers.

"Well, hello ladies." he said leaning against the door frame. "Can I help you?" he said flashing eye brows.

The guys in the living room looked up and were at the door in seconds.

"Hey." one nodded at me. I smiled politely and silently wished Rose was here.

"We're selling chocolate for our school, would you like to buy some?" Mia asked looking up at them.

"Well, I don't know about the chocolate but I-" he stopped talking when a big male Guardian who was accompanying us, stepping up and glared at him. He gulped. "Sure, I'll buy some, how many?"

"Five." I said. He nodded.

"Make it ten." Mia said. He nodded faster grabbing money.

"Yea, sure. Whatever." he handed us the money and I gave him the chocolate.

"Thanks!" Mia said happily and we skipped off to the next house.

Back at the Academy

Rose POV

"Why the hell didn't you just buy like a 100 chocolate bars with you're money?" I asked Adrian. He grinned.

"Well, I would have much rather walked behind you for 3 hours." he winked. I hit his arm softly.

"You're lucky I can't damage you're face." he just laughed as we sat down again at the café waiting for Kirova to make an announcement. I saw Lissa and Mia walk in so I got up and walked over.

"Hey, how was business?" I asked Lissa. She groaned.

"My feet hurt." she said. I laughed.

"That' why you don't wear heels silly." I told her. She rolled her eyes.

"But their small heels." just then Christian and Eddie ran by holding their stomachs. I grinned and watched them run into a nearby guy's bathroom.

"What's wrong with them?" Mia asked.

"Oh my gosh? Is Christian okay?" Lissa said. I laughed.

"They will be, when they get that Lax out of their systems." I grinned. Both of their eye brows crinkled in confusion.

"I new they were going to eat all the chocolate…so I put some lax in a few of them. Just a little payback." I grinned. They laughed as we went to go sit down next to Adrian.

As we past Dimitri I brushed my hand with his and winked. He didn't smile but I could tell he was sending me a message threw his eyes.

I sat down next to Lissa as Kirova took the stand.

"Well students, it was a very successful day. I want to congratulate Miss Dragomir's team for selling 78 chocolate bars, the highest number sold today." she said. Everyone clapped and I smiled at them.

"I guess you each get a kiss then." I said. Lissa sighed.

"If Christian and Eddie ever get out of the bathroom." I laughed.

"Um Rose…wares my platinum card?" Adrian asked. I grinned and took it out of my pocket.

"You know what's funny? You told me you're cards have not limit but after I bought that mini-mall they wouldn't let me buy any thing-"

"What did you just say?" Adrian asked. I grinned.

"I bought a mini-mall." I told him. He groaned.

"Rose!" I just laughed.

"Oh and I got you a present." I told him handing him another card that I had stolen. It was one of those ones you can personalize, so I put the picture of him and Christian…on the ground from when they bumped into each other.

"Shit!" he yelled a little too loud I just laughed and grinned evilly.

Three jerks down, one hot Russian jerk to go.

Okay, I hope you liked that! I was going to do a different theme but I liked this one better. Please forgive me for not updating, oh and reviews and ideas please!
